Alex : [recalling his trip] Oh yeah, the bullfight was great. I watched a horse get gored. El Cid captured Valencia, I picked up dysentery there. I spent a week in Grenada mostly watching the famous rain in Spain. All in all the trip was incredibly - it was - lonely. But don't tell Joel that, ok. I just told him the trip was great.
Laura : Yeah, I was going to say that about my trip. But it's hard when they bring you back in an ambulance.

Laura : Of all the cemeteries I've visited, I must say Père Lachaise is my favorite. Strolling down row after marvelous row of so many gifted and famous dead people. Today I left flowers on the graves of Colette, Isadora Duncan, and Edith Piaf.

Laura : I feel like an idiot! You don't know how much I was looking forward to coming to Paris - and nothing this year turned out the way I thought it would. I don't know. Maybe my expectations were too great. I guess if you don't expect anything, then you aren't disappointed.

Laura : This'll probably be my last postcard.
